Dual Isotopes Tracing Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics during Leguminous and Non-Leguminous Litter Decomposition under Controlled Precipitation

Dual Isotopes Tracing Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics during Leguminous and Non-Leguminous Litter Decomposition under Controlled Precipitation

Plant litter decomposition figures importantly in the cycling of C and N pools in terrestrial ecosystems. We investigated how C and N fluxes changed during the decomposition of leguminous and non-leguminous leaf litters, and how these processes responded to different precipitation regimes. We used t...
